John Hiatt - Only The Song Survives - Sözleri

I woke her up twice in the middle of the night

To ask what her name is and where she might live

To ask how many fingers she saw in this light

To ask if she might know what gives



She said we rolled that camaro like a cowboy cigarette

Out on the highway in a puddle of beer

That's just about how close to death you're gonna get

Till the only thing standing is fear



Chorus:

Singing, oh darling, faces were changed

The names of the innocent, the story at five

Oh darling, faces get strange

But only the song survives



She said, now don't you remember they put a patch on your eye

Like dread pirate roberts, you looked so unplanned

They cut off my wedding ring and you started to cry

A one-eyed niagara falls man



Chorus



I said, but I never married - I said with surprise

And is this the diamond you said that you lost

It was under my eyelids when they flushed out my eyes

Hell and I don't know what the thing cost



Chorus twice



But I woke up sweating to breakfast in bed

And there were my children, and there was my wife

Post-traumatic stress, of just a bump on the head

Or maybe the ride of my life



Chorus twice
